Jesus said in Matthew 24:42 to be on watch for His imminent return and in Matthew 16:3 to discern the signs of the times. Time is drawing to a close and the Body of Christ
must be prepared and on watch for His return. we must understand the days in which we live. Let us not be like those who Jesus rebuked with the words,
You know how to interpret the appearance of the sky, but you cannot interpret the signs of the times.
Matthew 16:3

Proverbs 22:3 NLT

A prudent person foresees danger and takes precautions. The simpleton goes blindly on and suffers the consequences.-- (((Charles Finney, said the following: “Ifthere is a decay of conscience, the pulpit is responsible for it))) --

Idle Youth Huge Problem In U.S.
Economy

In three months the United States' government will face yet another budget
battle.

If the U.S. is to remain the same country it is today, the Republicans
cannot afford to cave again but must stand firm and overhaul the entire
entitlements area. If the GOP allows the status quo to prevail yet again, the
U.S. will die economically first and then as a viable country and finally it
will be annexed by someone else.

The failure to stand firm after the partial government shutdown (personally
I feel the entire apparatus should have been silenced until all social programs
were dismantled) made the rift in the GOP much larger. The leadership is totally
separated from its base now. If it hopes to have any impact, it must rediscover
the position the base wants.

In the money war, nobody will win. But the country that emerges will more
closely resemble the one that turned the tide in WWI; a country much more
private sector friendly and devoid of the bureaucratic fat it is saddled with
now.

Individual Americans will be hurt. Those dependent on Social Security,
Medicare, disability, food stamps, housing assistance, or any of the other
thousand welfare programs will take a hit. But here's a novel idea, one that has
been forgotten--get your family back together. Pool your resources. I grant you
it is not as much fun as running around in your retirement looking for the
Fountain of Youth and it might be a drag to take care of the old fogies, but
that's where all this government nonsense about a welfare state began anyway.

As individuals we allowed the government to take care of what should be our
personal responsibilities. In exchange for shifting this burden, we just shifted
a few dollars from our pocket to government's never realizing the government
view would change and they would want it all.

Look at the overall picture. Financially the path we are on is out of
control. Default, whether now willingly or later by force, is unavoidable with a
drastic change to government spending.

But long before we would be ready for such an even the "Lost Generation",
not to be confused with the Greatest Generation or the Baby Boomer Generation or
Generation X or whatever catchword is use, the Lost Generation will undermine
any government attempt to correct the situation.

What? You missed the Lost Generation's birth! How inattentive you've been!
It's right here, right now. It is the same generation that hampered the European
Union's economy. It is the format for revolution whether you look at 18th
century France, 20th century Russia or any other era's revolution. It is a cadre
formed by youth who have no other options but to take what they need.

It is the Youth of America today.

According to a study released by The Opportunity Nation this morning, six
million youth (almost two percent of the entire population) are neither in
school or working. Six million is much more than a number, it represents 15% of
the young people aged 16-24 in the country with neither a job, a desk or
hope.

They are missing the chance to develop skills they will need later in life.
They are missing the chance to utilize the lackluster, government-driven
education they received because they are sitting on the sidelines watching for
the economy to give them an opening.

Sorry bro, it ain't gonna happen! Now we have government political flacks
saying the only way to "fix" Social Security is to raise the retirement
age.

Hm-m, youth are out of work because too many older folks are clinging to
their jobs trying to make up for the last decade when they saw their retirement
plans take a major hit and now the elected politicians want to solve the backlog
problem by extending the work life of the older set. There's a faulty
logic there and it begins when politicians no longer stick to running the
government but try to solve social issues.

Hey idiots, I have some bad news for you. That kind of thinking is not what
made this the best country on the planet. But it is indicative of why we find
ourselves in this position.

But step back to the 15% of that generation the six million unemployed or
out-of-school in the 16-24 age group actually means.

Less than 10% of the youth began the revolution in France in the 1780s.
Less than 4 percent of the population actually fought against the Russian White
Army and with Lenin in 1917. Those six million youth, had they voted
for Republican candidates who firmly rejected the socialistic state, would have
swung the last election to--oh yeah, Romney.

Sorry again, GOP, but there was no difference between your candidate and
the one who won the election. We would still be stuck with the (Un)Afforable
Patient Care Act. We would still be running trillion dollar annual debts and we
would still be facing a nasty budget debate.

When both parties are mirror images of the each other just moving at
different speeds, there is no real choice. These wayside six million youths will
be far more of a problem in another decade than either the government or the
economy will be able to handle.

You cannot fix hopelessness, which is what the six million represent, with
another government program. Only an unfettered, free economy without the onerous
tax burdens currently levied have a chance to overcome the despair.

The GOP can step into this gap and reach out to these youth but they have
to do it now by showing them that their own effort will be rewarded by the
economy not taken by the government.

The six million represent The Land of Opportunity in a way that was
unimaginable a short lifetime ago. They truly have Doom and Ignorance written on
their foreheads.

Just a reminder I will be speaking at the Perkins
Restaurant in Loveland, CO this Friday morning. The gathering will begin at 6:30
with the program starting at 7 and running to 8:30. Perkins is located on the NE
quadrant of the Cross Roads Blvd/I-25 junction.--Mike
